Outdoor Research's AXIOM JACKET

This waterproof third layer commonly known as gore, consists of GORE-TEX Active technology, which is half the mass of the standard GORE-TEX  membrane with a much higher breathable rate than its predecessor. This is very evident because the jacket barely weighs 382 g, for us the most noticeable characteristic..

Although designed for aerobic activities in harsh conditions such as alpinism and multi-pitch routes, we should always carry a waterproof jacket in our rucksack especially in Spring because when you least expect it you'll be making good use of it i.e; for that unexpected shower,  for that annoying wind that suddenly creeps up on you when you're belaying, etc. Common circumstances at this time of the year. Definitely an item we will surely miss if we forget it at home..

When we speak of this Seattle brand, it is very important for us to mention its well cared for attention to detail which makes this garment an outstanding item; full adjustable hood that fits over helmet, small hole on the front pocket for the use of your mp3 headphones, hand pockets set above hip belt or harness, maximum mobility in the sleeves, can be stuffed into one pocket, etc.

This jacket like other OR items are designed and tested in collaboration with  UIAGM,  therefore its quality and finish is much more achieved. These guys are working really hard  to be among the best in the mountain clothing business.
